My Notes January 2025 Week 3

Curry House CoCo Ichibanya, a.k.a. CoCo Ichi, is the world's largest curry chain.

The restaurant opened in 1978 in the outskirts of Nagoya.

There are more than 1,300 restaurants in Japan.

There are another 181 restaurants in 12 other countries.

Japanese curry is milder and sweeter than Indian curry.

“Katsu curry,” a.k.a. “pork cutlet curry,” is the most popular order for foreigners.

“Easy-going” means “laid-back or relaxed.”

He is really easy going; he never gets upset about anything.

 “To eat one's words” means “to admit that what one said was wrong.”

You said that I can’t pass the test, but I'm going to make you eat your words.
